unheard of prospect
Posted: Wed Jan 7, 2009 8:54 pm
Joe Butcher 24 yr old football player who never went to college, and has yet to give up on his dream of playing in the NFL
He is a Wide Receiver/Return Specialist who has been playing Semi Pro football in Lima Ohio for the last 5 seasons. And is faster than MOST nfl wide receivers. Joe attempted to go to college and drew interest from Ohio State, Oregon, Minnesota, Ball State, and Marshall. However because of an NCAA rule 14.2.3.5 that states a player loses a year of college eligibility each year after the age of 21 that he plays in that sport. Since Joe has been playing Semi Pro ball for 5 seasons he has exhausted all of his college eligibility.
Here’s rule 14.2.3.5, in its entirety:
“In sports other than tennis and swimming and diving, any participation as an individual or a team representative in organized sports competition by a student during each 12-month period after the student’s 21st birthday and prior to initial full-time enrollment in a collegiate institution shall count as one year of varsity competition in that sport. Participation in organized competition during time spent in the U.S. armed services shall be excepted.”
Joe is now in contact with the NFL. Tape has been sent to all 32 NFL teams and 8 CFL teams. AFL is not having a season this year. Some teams like his talents. Although, because of his lack of college experience they feel that he will be better suited playing a year or two in the Canadian Football League. For example the New York Jets like his talents enough and think he is young enough(24 years old) and have forwarded his information onto the Montreal Alouettes of the CFL. Also spoke with Bob O'Billovich from the Hamiltion Tiger-Cats just this afternoon, he is expecting and looking forward to seeing the info I sent to him Saturday. I am just trying to get Joe's name out there to get some feedback and hits on his you tube video below.
Joe is 5-9 185
Joe's latest times through F.A.S.T. NWO
(updated since highlights were made)
benches 225 15x's and 315 6x's
runs a 4.38 40 yard dash
3.92 20 yard shuttle
1.39 10 yard dash
6.76 3 cone drill
Joe Butcher’s 10 yard split time of 1.39 is faster than any player at the NFL combine since 2000.
Like the 40-yard dash times, the 10-yard split measures speed.
The 10-yard split is an important indicator of a player's short-area burst. Most
would argue that the 10-yard split is just as important if not more important
than the 40 time, because players almost never run, unobstructed, for 40 straight yards.
Notable 10 yard splits
Chris Johnson (fastest time since 2000) 1.40
D. Rodgers Cromartie 1.41
Eddie Royal 1.46
Sincore Moss 1.48
Anthony Gonzalez 1.48
